What started as a Cross Church prayer initiative for our people has now gone above and beyond through the power of technology. What we are finding is the initial engagement in the mornings at 6:30 CT via Facebook Live or call-in by phone, is multiplied in a major way the rest of the day. People from all across America and some across the world are joining us. On the day before each text is sent out, I pray and seek God about our focus points for this day. The three areas these points are built upon are: personal, the Church and America. They are simple, clear, and helpful to provide us a way to pray individually and together. Therefore, if you are not engaged with us, please join now. Spread the word to others. Post on all social media. Here is just one example of what we have done daily.

Engage with Our Church Weekly

It is really important that you engage with our church weekly. Sure, it helps the church be the church, but it also helps you to walk with God with a greater intentionality and a greater intensity. Engage with your spiritual family through a specific worship service, a small group, giving, and a service opportunity. Remember, we do what we do because we believe people need Jesus, people need each other, people change the world, and people leave legacies.

Invite Others to Our Church Weekly

Inviting others to be with us weekly is so important. Everywhere you go, listen to people, talk to people, and as God opens the opportunity, invite others to be with us weekly. You never know what God will do in the lives of others when they experience the atmosphere of worship, the preaching of God’s Word, and the community of a spiritual family. God wants to use you to change someone’s life. It may begin with one thing: An invitation from you to another person.
